...after he asked for Juliet’s hand in marriage. Capulet believes that his daughter is too young to marry. Capulet says ‘An she agree, within her scope of choice lies my consent and fair according voice’ he is saying that Paris has his approval but it is up to Juliet to make the final decision. The way Capulet handles the situation with Paris shows the love and kindness he feels for his daughter. Capulet allows Juliet to decide if she wants to marry this man. This wouldn’t have happened very often in Elizabethan times as the richer families often married for wealth not love and here Capulet is asking, not telling, Juliet to marry this wealthy man. He doesn’t treat her as a piece of furniture and wants her to be happy with the person she marries, ‘She is the hopeful lady of my earth’ Capulet has lost his previous children and only wants the best for his only daughter.
Then, in Act Three, Scene Four, Capulet arranges Juliet’s and Paris’ wedding saying ‘she shall be married to this noble earl’. Capulet arranges this marriage without his daughters consent because he believes it will help to bring his daughter out of her depressive state, which he thinks is caused by the death of her cousin Tybalt but in reality it’s because of Romeo being exiled from Verona. The sentence Capulet says shows how kind he is to his daughter; Capulet could have chosen the wealthiest man he could get his hands on, however he chooses a ‘noble’...

...marriage. Capulet responds to Paris and tells him that Juliet has “not seen the change of fourteen years", he also describes Juliet as not yet “ripe to be a bride”, this implies that Capulet believes that Juliet is too young for marriage, which in that society would seem slightly unusual as 14 is not an early age at which to get married, by saying this Tybalt respodes with ”younger than [Juliet} are happy mothers made”, which again shows that girls younger than Juliet are already mothers and that Juliet is not too ‘young’ for marriage, but when Capulet responds with a continued agrarian metaphor (lines 11-12, relating to land) “ and too soon marred are those early made” turns things around indicating that he does not agree (or does not fully agree) with marrying at such a young age possibly because of the experience of Juliet and his previous children and furthermore, one could interpret the word ‘marred’, in a myriad of different ways, for instance the audience may well interpret as it meaning an expanding fruit (“ripen”) , being marred (spoilt) by early marriage which alludes to how early marriage can cause young child birth and the word “ripen” alludes to motherhood, this may mean that he fears Juliet to grow up too quickly, and transition from childhood into motherhood it could also mean that he is marring Juliet’s virginity and a slight foreshadowing of the...

...a variety of conflicting figurative language. Sound devices, imagery, juxtaposition, oxymorons, and other figurative language examples all assist in conveying the theme that life is paradoxical, in Shakespeare’s play Romeo and Juliet. A supreme example of this theme, could be Friar Lawrence’s opening lines, “The gray-eyed morn smiles on the frowning night, / Check’ring the eastern clouds with streaks of light; / And flecked darkness like a drunkard reels / From forth day’s path and Titan’s burning wheels.” (II.iii.1-4) Throughout Act I and Act II, Shakespeare juxtaposes the characters of Romeo and Juliet to develop the theme of the paradoxical nature of life.
One of the most significant and reoccurring paradoxes in the works of Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet, is his contradicting light verses dark imagery. Romeo associates Juliet with light saying “[she] is the sun” (II.ii.2) He then furthers the comparison by correlating Juliet with a bright gem when he states, “she hangs upon the cheek of night / As a rich jewel in an Ethiop’s ear” (I.v.44-45) Juliet, a stunning luminescent treasure, is opposed to the darkness of the Ethiopian skin tone. Contrastingly, Montague articulates his apprehension concerning Romeo’s current actions to Benvolio explaining that Romeo “shuts up his windows, locks fair daylight out, / And makes...

...Romeo & Juliet Essay
Fate, most people don’t even believe in it; in fact some don’t even know what it is. There are many definitions of Fate, but most seem to revolve around something like a force—in which no one can control—in life. But one of the few people—in that small percentage—that do believe in fate, so happens to include William Shakespeare himself, and he tries to proof Fate to be true through figurative language and incidents, in his book Romeo and Juliet. This story is about two families, very similar to one another, but yet different, for sadly, a family feud keeps them apart. The son and daughter of each family fall in love and due to all the pressures they feel from their family and others, they die, side by side in their unfortunate love.
Figurative language; although most do not take the subtle hints, many are indeed scoured all through out the book—clues about Fate being real. One of which are found in Act1.Scence4.Line113, “ ‘I fear too early, for my mind misgives some consequence yet hanging in the stars, shall bitterly begin his fearful date with this nights revels…By some vile forfeit of untimely death.’ ” This is Romeo, son of the Montague family. He is saying this just before he meets Juliet, daughter of the opposing House. He says solemnly that he feels that something tonight will happen here—at the Capulet’s party—where it will change his life forever, and...

...might think. In fact, in Shakespeare’s “Romeo and Juliet”, the tragic hero, Romeo is quite flawed. The play is set in Verona and is about two families, the Capulets and the Montagues, who are bitter enemies. Juliet, the daughter of Capulet, and Romeo, the son of Montague, fall in love and get married. Soon after their marriage, Mercutio, Romeo’s friend and Tybalt, Capulet’s nephew gets in a fight in which Mercutio is killed. Romeo seeks revenge and kills Tybalt. As punishment, Romeo is banished from Verona. With the help of Friar Lawrence, Juliet comes up with a plan to see Romeo by faking her death. Romeo, unaware of the plan, learns she has died and decides to end his own life. Juliet sees Romeo dead and then also kills herself. Romeo has many flaws but the most prominent is his impulsiveness. He tends to make irrational and quick decisions without thinking about the consequences of his actions. Romeo’s impulsiveness motivates his choices when falling in love and while in love, as well as when choosing to get into fights and ultimately when he decides to commit suicide, leading to the downfall of the tragic hero, Romeo.
From the beginning of the book, Romeo is quick and reckless when falling in love as well as while in love. An example is when Romeo...

... Imagine your driving down eleven mile in your brand new Mustang and this careless, reckless teenager is texting and driving and hits your car and wrecks it. You were driving safely with your new car and now because some careless teenager is not taking driving seriously and you have to pay for it. Do you think sixteen year olds are responsible enough to take on the task of driving at that early of an age? Sixteen year olds are too young to take on the responsibly of driving because teens are irresponsible, they're not mature enough, and teens are more likely to drive recklessly.
First teens should not drive because at sixteen they are still irresponsible. They are still immature and not fully developed in their brains. They also aren't use to the big responsibly of taking care and pay for a car. They don't realize that you have to pay for gas, insurance and extras for a car. They will take advantage of the fact that they can drive. Teens may not accept the fact that this is driving and you can injour you and others around you. Driving is one pretty big step at sixteen from nothing to be responsible for to having to take care and pay for a car. Teens also may not take driving as serious as compared to grown adults would. When you get older you have more responsibility, like owning a house, having a sturdy job, and taking care of others. If they take their drivers test later on they may be more serious because they really do need to drive, not just wanting to. The more the...
